Most of the original 1890 U.S. Federal Census records were destroyed or badly damaged by a fire in the Commerce Department in 1921. Records enumerating only 6,160 individuals—less than one percent of the schedules—survived. Those for the Randall family were destroyed.

This photo is a “close-up” of the family shown in the above photo. I “believe” the people are (from left to right):
Gertrude Randall (age 8)

King Oran Randall (age 11) - Back row.
Clarence Randall (age 4½) - standing in front of King Oran.
Julia Ann Sewell-Randall holding Charlie David Randall (b. July 27, 1894 – May 17, 1895. Died in infancy – at 9 months old). His death is indicated by the “X” over him.

Note 1: Lavaca Randall's name is misspelled as “Lavica” in the 1900 U.S. Census.
Note 2: This is the only record of Afton Randall. She “apparently” died before the 1910 U.S. Census.

Note 1: “Carry M. Randall” was obviously intended to be “Carey E. Randall”.
Note 2: In this census we learn that Henry Oran Randall owned his home with no mortgage. The address was Bowman Street, Lavonia, GA.

Henry Oran Randall died on Sept. 9, 1930 (at age 73). The Death Certificate listed the cause of death as “Paralysis General”; which, at that time, was often used to describe Parkinson's Disease. He was buried at “Shoal Creek Baptist Church Cemetery” (Hart County), Georgia.1)
